Springfest 2024

May 11 @ 9:00 am 3:00 pm EDT

I will be giving a presentation at 11:00 a.m. and having a vendor’s booth the rest of the day. Other speakers and vendors will also be there.

Presentation (11:00 a.m.):

Gardening with Native Plants

Join me for a fun and interactive conversation about gardening with native plants to attract pollinators and wildlife. (And if you’re looking for native plants, come see me at my vendor’s booth.)

Vendor’s booth (10:00 a.m. – 3:00 p.m., or until sold out):

We will have a booth set up throughout the day (or until sold out) where I will have my native plants, books, and honey for sale.

I will also be taking pre-orders if you want to make sure I have the plants that you want. If you know that you want something specific, then I strongly encourage you to put in a pre-order. Logistics for how to place a pre-order can be found below the list of available items.

Additional species may make surprise appearances at the sale if they grow fast enough this week.

Available Items:

Books and Gift Certificates

Attracting Pollinators and Wildlife to Your Yard: 15 Free and Easy Ways ($12)
Planting for Honey Bees in the Ohio and Tennessee Valleys ($32)
Gift Certificates – good for any of my products or services
